jecorbett: I think you may be right. I laid the flex track and when I used the right track's "Optomize" button it said the tightest radius (Or somehting like that- can't remember the exact wording) was 10". I didn't believe that because I recreated the layout almost exactly with 18" snap track. For those of you that didn't know from my original: The layout is HO and it is 4' X 8'. Massey: Do you want me to email you my source files? If not how do I put a link to them on the forums so you can download them? pcarrell: All I can say is WOW! That is awesome. I wish I could fit that exact plan on 4' X 8' in HO but I doubt I would be able to. I think it was you who asked and now that I think of it maybe I need a little explanation of the layout. In the left side the 3 tracks are a small yard, the end of the lead will be somehting like a fuel tank and the switch back will be a shed for the switcher. I am only going to run diesel so no caboose needed or any steam support structures. So that takes care of the yard area to the west. The other 4 spurs are industry. The one off of the reversing section is going to be a small factory. The one off of the south east with 2 stub tracks is going to be somehting a little bigger (perhaps a lumber yard) and the last two in the middle to the north are going to be somehting else...maybe meat packing or something. That gives me 4 industries, a small yard, some engine facilities in the yard area and some nice moves to do (facing and the reverse loop). At the very bottom right that is an interchange track. The structure will be a tower or something.
